...Back in Bangkok. Bhiman Inn in Banlamphu. Night time swim...

Landed back in Bangkok at midday and headed for the Koh San Road. God that place is a sh*t hole and really can't stay there again. Had an absolute mission traipsing up and down trying to find somewhere and getting a tuk tuk from Koh San to Siam and back again but finally found a really nice boutique place called the Bhiman Inn in Banglamphu.

Its lovely and the staff are really friendly and helpful (which is really unusual from my experience of anywhere in or near the Koh San area). But its not just about luxury its about feeling safe, which I really do feel I am here.

By the time I finally get my stuff sorted it was pretty late so just decided to have an evening swim in the pool where I met two American guys and a bloke from Sweden.

Had a really nice evening chatting with them and learnt lots about Bangkok and things to do. Feel a 100% better this evening than what I did this morning but it wouldn't have been possible without mum, Vince's and Dan's help and suport. I am very lucky to have them.
